    Free trial

    Does such a thing exist? Most MMORPG's use this as an effective marketing tool, and after I did some googling, I simply couldn't find one. I have a gift card for Gamestop which is burning a hole in my pocket.

    I have 5 guest passes I need to hand out. I just don't think they are active as of yet. Let me check.

    Re: Free trial

    They are going to be opening up the buddy passes in the next week.

    I know many of you have also asked about your buddy keys, and we have now come to a level where we are able to activate them. During the next week you will therefore be able to use your buddy keys, inviting friends to the game with you.

    I wouldn't mind trying out the game. If anyone has another spare, feel free to send me one!

    Re: Free trial

    Thanks everyone for the offer, I better go with Sloppy Joe because I did ask him (although I forgot about it.) I'm getting pretty excited, I was thinking about buying the game today although I'm hesitant because I still have an x800.

    Re: Free trial

    Has anyone heard if they are going to charge people with trial passes for downloading the client like they did with early access?

    Re: Free trial

    That would certainly negate the meaning of trial pass.

    EDIT: I just went ahead and bought it.

    Re: Free trial

    I am dying to try this game!!! But like most people, I don't want to spend the $60.00 if my system (which does meet the minimums) won't run it well enough. If they do infact give out buddy passes, I would be so appreciative to get one. =) To those of you who play now, is it everything I think it's gonna be??

    Yeah - they did it during the EA though. I think it was 4 or 5 bucks.. for like 3 days of early access.. the buddy pass gets you 7 days free like the EA .. but not the client.. Maybe they've gotten over that though.

    Well ya gotta try it.. I fully recommend that. I use a dual core x64 'Pentium', 4GB, and 8800GTX with 768MB on cable and it works GREAT.. but I also have it set up at work ( ). At work I use a quad core x64 XEON, 8GB, and a $1600 FireGL video card on T1 and it runs like crap.

    Since I don't know what you expect, I probably can't tell you if it is everything you think it is going to be.

    I have 3 passes left.. I'll auction them off..
